how do you like this car? would you go back and maybe buy a different car??
im thinking about the nismo 370Z or this. IDK yet. how is the main't?? brakes, fluids, parts, etc.?? i know you gotta pay to play but its got brembo's with drilled rotors which mean it cost money to replace a rotor like that anyway. i just want to know what im getting into. i dont want to be a loser and just buy the car but can't pay for main't like a lot of people i know.
@Sandeep9201 The car has been very easy on maintenance. Needs front brake pads about every 20k, but other than that it's been nothing but oil and filter changes.
@caymandiver75 20K what kind of driving? and have you had to replace the rotor's yet? i heard they cost around 2K is that true? if you could would you go back and buy a different car? or do you think you made a great choice? sorry for all the questions i just want to make sure i will like this car.
@Sandeep9201 I have not had to replace the rotors yet, but I know for a fact they are not 2k. If I could go back again I still can't think of a better car for me. I love the looks, performance, low maintenance and reliability.
@350driftking It was intentional because I would have lost time by adding an extra shift at the end so I just held it through. May need slightly taller drag radials.
That setup puts out a PERFECT in-cabin sound. Super vicious without being too loud or annoying. Well done.
I've been looking for any kind of major engine mods for the IS-F like super/turbochargers, but none exist. It looks like that doesn't matter if exhaust and headers can do a <12 second quarter mile though. Any reliability issues or other problems to report since you posted this last October?
So you put down that time with only the exhaust and the headers? Are you sticking to the stock intake set up? I want my headers already but they seem to be out of stock...
@PartsMadness Yeah the exhaust and headers are my only mods for the 11 second run and I'm happy with the combination. Have you tried calling SIKKY directly? I saw a recent post saying they had like 3 sets left.
hi there please help me make up my mind.....

FYI The trick to getting this car into the 11's for me was holding 4th gear to the rev limiter and NOT up-shifting into 5th.

@caymandiver75
very interesting, you can hear it bang off the rev limiter at the top of 4th gear
